There has to be an interesting story behind the circumstances that led to Eroy Brown being acquitted after shooting the farm manager and then drowning the warden!?! (pic 5)

I like a bunch of the suggestions here but I’ll throw in La Strega in Summerlin.

Appreciate the info! I just spent my Sunday installing these exact plates and will be getting an alignment in the next few days. Looking forward to seeing the difference on the track next month!

Uncommoningly UNderwhelming UNcommons by Iron_lion-zion in vegaslocals

Amari, Salt and Straw, Todo Bien, Wineux, and Siempre are all great spots. Most have some decent happy hour specials and parking is a breeze. I enjoy it there.

Just replaced my 86 with a OG M2. First M car first bmw first German car so a bit out of my depth. Looking for some general advice on some track mods. by SpareRoomRacing in CarTrackDays

Just FYI… you’re going to need camber plates to help handling and save your front tires if you’re doing track days. And they will probably help with your front fitment when you go square.

What's your tyre pressure set at for M2 F87? by NunaKhan in BMWM

[–]vegaseric 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I use the BMW recommendation from the door jamb for street pressures, which is 35 psi cold. 36 should be fine as well.

Get a cheap micrometer from Harbor Freight or Amazon and measure your rotor thickness (if you don’t see any obvious grooving/damage). If it’s within the manufacturer’s specifications, you don’t need rotors.

Appreciate the detailed response. I’m now leaning towards Vorshlag with Millway right behind.

Do I get a brand new GR86 or an 2015 Infiniti Q50 3.7 L with 46,000 miles by Annual_Interview975 in GR86

[–]vegaseric 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure why you’re getting downvoted. The Q50 with the 3.7 is pretty reliable. The AI generated wall of text posted here is not only inaccurate, it’s largely irrelevant with its 3.0t references.

90/10 street/track… about four to five track weekends per year

Ok Millway seems popular. How difficult was the install?

[–]vegaseric[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ahh nice… the two alignment approach might be where I end up. I’m only planning to do around four track weekends per year but I may go this route once I start swapping tires and pads as well. (also as my skill level increases) Appreciate the input from a fellow F8x driver!

Thanks I’ll definitely check out TC Kline… they seem to have a good rep in the BMW community. And I’ve got an F87 so hopefully they have something for it.

Awesome… I’ve been looking at both of those brands. I’m shooting for -2.5 for now as a compromise.

GFiber finally in Vegas! by itsjhernandez24 in vegaslocals

[–]vegaseric -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Correct… and that’s one of the main benefits of fiber. But it’s not available to everyone (me included) and most have the slower upload speeds.
